Getting to know Peter Hoffman

Hello. I'm Peter L. Hoffman, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Los Angeles. For over a decade, I have maintained a strength-based, person-centered practice open to individuals and couples. I have an eclectic approach that meets you where you are, and I work collaboratively and with deep empathy. I am LGBTQ-affirming, trauma-informed, and mindfulness-based, and hope that together we can move beyond indecision, insecurity, inertia, and fear to capture the essence of who you want to be. My approach I am eclectic in my approach, incorporating a wide variety of modalities, including humanistic, relational, cognitive behavioral, and mindfulness. I assess your lived experience, what you want to achieve, and the obstacles in your way, both actual and emotional. From there, we build an authentic connection and set a foundation for growth and empowerment. My focus In a safe, comforting, and affirmative environment, I work with clients from a variety of cultural backgrounds, specializing in life transitions, aging, grief and loss, shame, trauma, LGBTQ issues, creative blocks, career changes and job loss, depression and anxiety, and other challenges of modern living. My communication style The therapeutic relationship is a unique collaborative experience, and I use warmth, curiosity, humor, and a deep connection to offer you a chance to confront your fears, struggles, worries, stressors, and doubts without judgment. I allow for a free flow of conversation because I have sometimes found that the most significant nuggets of transcendence occur when least expected. My journey to mental healthcare After 30 years in the creative arts as an editor, writer, publisher, and manager, I chose to forge a new path focused on helping others find their clarity and identify their strengths in an increasingly complicated and fractured world. To that end, I enrolled at Antioch University and received my Master's in Psychology in 2011.
